slug hunters
 

just out of curiosity, for those of you who hunt deer with a shotgun. What is the longest shot you've made with a shotgun?

RE: slug hunters
 

100yds , but with a H&R ultra slug gun.

RE: slug hunters
 

75 yards smoothbore barrel.

125-130 yards rifled barrel.

RE: slug hunters
 

120yards. Wouldnt shoot any farther than that.

RE: slug hunters
 

it was 110yds. with my Remington 11-87 rifled barrel, Lightfield slugs

RE: slug hunters
 

same here 110 yds, checked it with a rangefinder.:)

RE: slug hunters
 

89 yards (per the rangefinder). Rifled barrel and Winchester Gold Partition (at 1900 fps).

RE: slug hunters
 

last year got a buck at 125 yards. shot him with a remington 870 express magnum. used federal 2.75 slugs. Wouldn't shoot much farther than that though.

RE: slug hunters
 

125 yards Browning Abolt rifled barrel lightfield 3" commanders,Hunting partner has ranged kills of 176 and 191 yards with a Marlin 512 and Winchester partition golds,mine gun won't shoot them at all BUT put some range time in yesterday with my new load federal 3/4 oz.barnes expanders.1900 fps.About 16 inch drop at 200 yards dead on windage wise.200 yards was just for referance,my range didn't have targets at 150 and 175 yards.As a side note I don't recommend shots of this distance without considerable range work and an intimate knowlege of retained energy and wind drift!
